Koi, you're on here posting that racing definitely won't go ahead on May 1st. Why not back up your opinion?

Hello, the 15yr grandson has had it, he's recovering now
But still has the cough. Picked the wife up from work yesterday and learned one of her team is very ill in intensive care with it. Worrying times. |

12 bets every day here.
March best month for over a year, and April going good Thank the Lord for Aussie and US racing .There now, bit of good news. G'day all. |

By:
i doubt anyone in uk is unaffected by this , no one has seen anything remotely like it or know how it will eventually end
and folk think horses will be entering stalls 1st of may , beyond belief tbh you wonder what they see i hope you and your folks stay safe koi |

Only 14 people reading this thread out of 65 million thank God.. a lot of pompous rhetoric

if people adhere to the govermeant rules then racing will return a lot quicker but if not we could be sitting indoors for a long while but i fear the latter will happen, only yesterday i saw a group of about 6 teenagers smoking down an alleyway near where i live, its a attitude that it wont happen to me so why should i care
|

By:
708 dead today still going up
And people are more concerened when racing will start again so they can have a bet...Laughable. |

By:
these are proberly the same ones that now start betting on american and aussie racing and of course the cartoon grand national (though profits did go to the nhs so i will excuse this one), its the desprate factor dont like casino games so anything will do, i havent a bet since early march and proberly not before june either at the rate the virus is going
|
|
By:
So people who bet on something that won't have a result for 4 weeks are compulsive and bet on anything?
Is that the leap you are making? |
|
By:
Yeah, its not really just about having a bet, is it Rooster. Horse racing has its own ecosystem and the longer the delay to restarting, the the more damage will have been done to the industry as a whole. I'm hoping racing can start again ASAP. Some of you sound happy about it not starting on May 1st? This enforced period of no horse racing is probably the first time you've ever broke even at the game!
![]() Isleham, some very good posts, mate. Very refreshing to read. Unlike the hysterical Hello. who probably ****s his pants whenever he sees his neighbour taking the dog for a walk! |

which industry doesnt this apply to? |
|
By:
More so in horse racing. Horse racing is a world within a world IMO.
|
|
By:
A whole generation of 2yo's unraced, 3yo's who only get one shot at the classics. Breeders, sellers and buyers left in limbo.....
|
|
By:
yes whipping pricadilly , correct
i do have a fear of current situation , family in NHS and elderly relatives i would love to be waking up all self centred and detached from reality tbh and have a pea sized brain focus solely on racing , your lucky there mate tho you can keep the xenophobia tbh |

And that is what it's all about WP...Opinions.. |

By:
Hello dont waste time on him
Last week he was comfortable with the amount of deaths because they were old and would have died soon anyway. Not really worth a conversation with imo |

Take yourself off to a non-horse racing forum then you fool! Isleham is 68 and doesn't act like you. Yeah, good to see you got over your sniffles that you thought was Corona, The Dealer. Drama Queen!

i know dealer mans a loon
i feel i know him in another life , possibly fraudy or one of the family ![]() |

every post you make you look a bigger fool whippin , keep going lad
kemo/fraudy king of tools crown is ever closer |
|
By:
I will freely admit I didn't take it too seriously to start with but am now aware that literally anyone could get seriously ill or die from this virus however as soon as the signs are there that the NHS can cope the country simply has to start to get back to some sort of normality otherwise the financial and social implications will eventually outweigh the medical issues resulting in many more deaths and the country in ruin.
|
|
By:
Totally agree ribero there has to be a plan, wont be normal life for a long time but you would hope with restrictions as close to normal as possible.
Imo though that just cant/wont happen for some time yet |
|
By:
I'm off out for a long walk in the sunshine. But, be sure to let us know when you think Horse Racing can start again, OK Hello? What requirements would need to be met before you would be prepared to give it the OK?
![]() |
|
By:
your brain is to small to get it whippin but i cant hold that against you it would be wrong
i think most folk right now would love to have racing as their single most priority , others unfortunately have other things to worry about so in answer i don't really give a fk when it starts tbh |
|
By:
Yes impossible situation for govt damned if they do damned if they don't scenario,social media and 24 hours news a lot to answer for.
|
|
By:
hello
sorry to hear you have family in the nhs and that is obviously a concern and elderly relatives who should be self isolating so ought to be safe. |
|
By:
no worries isleham , testing times for most folk tbh
as long as we both locking horns down line , stay safe pal |
|
By:
I would love to see racing back as soon as possible but all the while people are told to keep up the "Social Distancing" it would be rather difficult for the jockeys to keep 2 metres away from any other jockeys while they are racing.
|
|
By:
but at my age i'm probably far more likely to die of cancer,heart attack,stroke etc.(i've
already had a serious pulminary embolism) than of the virus. i do not walk around frightened of the other diseases which kill far more people than this will so will not walk around frightened and wringing my hands about this virus |

Social media has ruined society .

By:
zealot, really has, just look on the weinstein case, he wasnt a nice man he was definetly a pig, but few years back there is no way hed have even been in court with the lack of proper evidence, social media tried him and found him guilty.
|
|
By:
We could all learn a lot from, Isleham. He won't let fear of the unknown stop him from living his life. If we did? Then none of would dare step out of the front door, virus or no virus!
|
|
By:
Btw, how ironic that Scotland's Chief Medical Officer is refusing to let the scaremongering and hysteria she has helped create stop her from living her best life!

I have a very good friend who had major heart surgery involving them taking his heart out for hours, he is a bit younger than me and knows he is one of the people most at risk so he is not mixing with people except his wife and dog. He is keeping clear of his grown up children until things are less dangerous.
|
|
By:
yes indeed
im sure the families of the 13 elderly who died in the Scottish care home and others in critical care right now understand her need for a day in the country twice |

By:
i concur with zealot 110%.

Is that like 11 out of 10?

no,1100 out of 1000.
